Not sure where this question belongs. I am using YABB 2.5 have been a user for many years and appreciate all the updates and security measures. Like many users, I have to go through the process of looking at each potential members request to join my forum. The registration log is great but is it possible to edit its format so that the "reason for joining" shows up in the reg log (vs. having to click on every entry to validate or deny membership?). It would make things much faster is I could add that column to the reg log. Thanks.

Note: Like most others, this forum doesn't allow us to freely edit our posts or topics to make corrections as needed, so please remember to look for subsequent posts if you see any mistakes or outdated information. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi there, I downloaded the zip file and replaced the RegistrationLog.pl with the new file. The Reg log now includes a column for "reasons" but there is no info in it. Have I done something wrong? All the other columns are filled with info so I assume it is not a permissions issue. Help. Thanks. Gerry

P.S. Since the overwhelming number of reg entries are to be deleted, it would be helpful to be able to look at the reg log, approve those few that are real and then have an option to delete all the rest...just a thought.

It's probably not you. Give me a bit to look at the file and see why it's not áreading the reason.

Edited:

The registration reason only shows up it they've been validated. (If they don't validate within the time limit, they're gone anyway and cleaning the Reglog will take care of them. (Of course, my test is on a 2.5.2 install but it should work for a 2.5ae install as well.)

If you only have one solution to a problem you're not trying hard enough!

Just another note, I finally approved a member and the reason suddenly appeared in the column, it was not there before I approved them and does not appear when I deny them membership. Hope that helps. Gerry

Just an update...only about half of the reasons are showing up. At first I thought it was just the ones that had validated, but about half of them are showing no reason until I click on the profile button and have to look at them manually. It is better than it was, but still requires a lot of time to weed out the bad requests for membership. Thanks, Gerry
